26th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
4lb lower than when winning over this trip at Sandown (good to firm) last summer, but heavy defeats in his last four outings leave him with plenty to prove. |
20/1 |
|
6th 4 (4) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Three-time winner at 1m2f (good to firm) although that was back in 2022/23 and his last success came over 1m6f at Sandown in July; tailed off on final start last term and two runs (1m4f) this season contained little encouragement. |

27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
C&D winner but he ended 2025 below par and beat one on his return from six months off in 1m4f Kempton handicap three weeks ago; needs to take a major step forward. |

28th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |

Good second off this mark in better race over C&D on Derby day, having scored at Chester the time before; not in the same form since and suffered a heavy defeat last Sunday. |

21st Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 4f 14y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Has only won over 1m4f at Chester in his last 26 starts; feasibly handicapped but he hasn't threatened in last four runs and others are more persuasive; 0-2 here. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Acts on soft; can make the running; won six (four over hurdles, two on Flat) of seven starts in a golden spell last February-October; soundly beaten over hurdles on latest three outings (in tough races on last two) and unraced beyond 1m4f on Flat, but he can't be comfortably dismissed in this small field. |
2/1 |
|
18th 16 |
11th Mar 2026 Good To Soft 2m 5f 0y Class 1 |
10st 13lb |
Has set the pace in small fields; won six (four over hurdles, two on Flat) of seven starts in a golden spell last February-October, the final leg in a conditions event at this track; soundly beaten on both starts since (admittedly no chance in Grade 1 latest) and unraced beyond 2m1f, leaving him with plenty to prove in this search for a big career best. |
33/1 |
|
1st 2 |
25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 2m 0f 87y Class 2 |
11st 0lb |
Now has a mark of 90 on the Flat after last month's back-to-back 1m4f wins at Epsom; returns to hurdling on a high, therefore, and last season went well, finishing fourth in a Grade 1 at Aintree and three wins including a notable handicap performance in beating mostly older opposition under a big weight at Sandown; he's the standard-setter by some margin and all ground comes alike. |

28th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
10st 0lb |
Successful three times in May/June but his progress has seemingly come to an end; admittedly may benefit from this drop back in grade after a couple of Class 3 defeats. |
12/1 |
|
10 (5) |
6th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
In good form on turf until folding tamely and well held last time; consistent in defeat on AW (four attempts) but he's 9lb higher than last appearance in this sphere. |
16/1 |
|
3 (3) |
2nd Aug 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Progressive 4yo who has won three times this season (1m2f-1m4f, good to firm/good) and again ran well when third of five at Newbury (1m4f, good to firm) a fortnight ago; there's every chance he'll be thereabouts. |

10st 0lb |
Sole win (22 races) was on AW in June 2024; five seconds on turf and bang there on AW (1m3f/1m4f) on last two starts before 30,000gns sale (left Alan King) in April, but this is the first time he's gone beyond that on Flat. |
12/1 |
|
4th 8 (2) |
6th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Sole win in 1m2f Lingfield AW handicap nearly two years ago; has been running well since back on AW of late but it's pushing it to call him well handicapped in this competitive race. |
8/1 |
|
2nd 2 (5) |
10th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
On a losing run but he comes here in good nick, coming out on top of the pace-setters when fifth of ten in 1m4f Wolverhampton handicap 39 days ago; he holds solid claims off a 2lb lower mark. |

27th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Kickstarted 2026 with success at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in March and backed it up with a good third of 12 in another 9.5f handicap there since; this C&D scorer can go well again off the same mark. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 4 (12) |
20th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
His first seven wins were all gained over 1m4f/1m3f, with the latest of those last October, but he then made all under Olivia Tubb in a six-runner race over C&D 13 days ago; that win was by a neck and he's been raised 2lb since, but a wide draw complicates today's task. |
12/1 |
|
1st 5 (3) |
7th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Has gained all wins over 1m3f/1m4f, including at Southwell (narrowly) in October when last seen; the 8yo is still competitively treated on historical data but has something to prove back down in trip. |

25th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Consistent mare who scored three times at Windsor (11.5f) last term and has posted two creditable efforts at Lingfield (latest over 2m) this year; C&D record reads 312; solid claims. |
7/2 |
|
5th 6 (7) |
31st Jan 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Reliable type who returned from over three months off with a creditable fourth over 1m4f here three weeks ago; versatile trip-wise and stays this far; each-way hopes. |
10/1 |
|
7 (4) |
28th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 6y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Has gained all turf wins over the extended 1m3f at Windsor, including in three of her last four outings; switching back to elsewhere isn't ideal but she has bits of Epsom form; better than ever and enters calculations. |

8th May 2026 Good 2m 2f 140y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Led on the post here for the first of two 1m4f wins last summer for Gemma Tutty and, with tongue-tie enlisted, hit major new heights for new yard this year with his wins from off the pace at Newcastle (2m, AW) and Musselburgh (1m6f, soft); raised another 9lb, which demands more, but those last two wins were delivered in some style and he has to be considered seriously. |
12/1 |
|
1st 8 (3) |
4th Apr 2026 Good 1m 5f 216y Class 3 |
8st 11lb |
Won twice over about 1m4f (good/AW) last summer for Gemma Tutty and, tongue tied for the first time, made a successful stable debut from off the pace in 11-runner race at Newcastle (2m, AW) six weeks ago; up 5lb but that latest win came in tidy style and he has to be considered seriously. |
16/1 |
|
1st 9 (3) |
19th Feb 2026 2m 0f 57y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Won twice for Gemma Tutty, including when pouncing late at Lingfield (1m4f, Class 4; 11-4) in September; finished last of three in a tactical affair over 12.5f here (4-7 favourite) in October and has since changed hands for 47,000gns; tongue-tie added; new trip for stable debut. |

9st 1lb |
Not disgraced on his first start since wind surgery when fourth of seven at Kempton (1m3f, AW) in March, but is just 1-23 and hasn't threatened in just four outings on turf. |
15/2 |
|
4th 7 (7) |
18th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Sole win came in 1m4f maiden here just over two years ago; 0-10 for Tony Carroll and is only slowly coming down the weights; has undergone wind surgery since last seen; goes without headgear. |
15/2 |

3rd 5 (6) |
16th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Below par the last twice and it's nearly two years since sole win; however, beaten under 1l in last two C&D attempts and he's on an attractive mark back here. |
